Chapter 1113 Chase and Kill
It was so dangerous, and they could not bring back any treasures from the world. Such an illusion-type world was completely worthless to marauders. If slave vendors or interstellar pirates found such a world, they would wish to cut off their own hands and dispel this bad luck. Only a place like the Heavenly Gates would list a place like this to train their new talents and maintain their status.
"There are many demons in illusion-type worlds. Furthermore, various frightening things emerge from there in an endless stream. All kinds of things exist there beyond your imagination... To be honest, Boss, you are not from the Combat Cultivation Hall anymore, and they are not forcing you to go. Whoever likes such a broken place can go, but there’s no need for you to risk it."
Lao Wang smiled slightly. Deep down, he greatly respected the Titan supervisor. He definitely would not shoot without aiming. As he listened to the Flying Pig ridicule the mission, he paid attention to a small line of words at the bottom of the letter: The Illusion Sea, a world where the rules are broken and chaotic...
This sentence alone induced countless reveries from Wang Zhong. Perfect rules were supreme and could not be disrespected. Violation of these rules would lead to obliteration. However, broken rules meant that even though the lofty and great powers were still dangerous, they would not be perfect or flawless.
Over the next few days, while the Combat Cultivation Hall pupils prepared for the expedition, they looked for fellow pupils or seniors to understand the Illusion Sea World. As a level-X training location, the Heavenly Core had divided the Illusion Sea World into three regions: white, yellow, and red. The red region had the lowest warning level and was suitable for Void Core experts to venture in. Meanwhile, the yellow region was the territory of the Solid Core experts. As for the red region, the difference in danger was very large from the other regions. It was not the territory of the Gold Cores as one would suppose. Even the owners of the Illusion Sea World, the Heavenly Core, had not completely occupied and understood the red region to this day. It was a restricted zone, and the danger level was highest there. Even Gold Core experts risked death if they entered this region.
"Wang Zhong, the treasures in the Illusion Sea World cannot be brought away. However, if you think that it is of no value, then you are wrong." These were Lavel’s words. "You can simply use the items in there. The yellow region has some items that even Gold Core experts desire. To you Void Cores, they would simply be priceless treasures. Thus, the training expeditions to the Illusion World are always extremely valuable."
"Very valuable? Then why aren’t Celeste and Jhonas going?" Lao Wang was curious.
"The direction of cultivation for the Equipment Refinery Hall is different, and they have no need for those treasures in the Illusion Sea World. Even if they go, it will not be of much help to them. However, five months ago, shortly after you joined the Heavenly Gates, the Pill Refinery Hall went to the Illusion Sea World. Furthermore, every pupil typically only has one chance to embark on the various training expeditions in the Heavenly Gates. After all, these worlds are extremely valuable. After you harvest the resources, they will need time to recover their vitality. Thus, unless you pay a massive additional fee or have extremely special circumstances, you are not allowed to enter for the second time."
An equilibrium of resources was also necessary, and they had to economize to avoid running short of resources. The more valuable the resources were, the more effective they would be. If a training region was always open to the pupils and they were allowed to collect and exhaust the resources there without any limits, the entire training world would wither and be abandoned after nurturing two or three batches of talents.
"Of course, opportunities and danger coexist. If you want to obtain more, it will naturally be more dangerous. In reality, training regions that have been evaluated as level-X are grounds prepared for Solid Core experts. The cost performance will be highest when Solid Cores go there. On the other hand, that place will not be good for Void Cores. The Pill Refinery Hall will organize expeditions towards the Illusion Sea World in the first year, but the Combat Cultivation Hall will usually wait for two or three years for the standards of the entire Combat Cultivation Hall to improve before choosing to go to the Illusion Sea World. I really don’t know what your supervisor is thinking this time..."
In general, Lavel felt that it was an opportunity, but it was slightly early for the current Wang Zhong and the other pupils.
...
The Heavenly River shone brilliantly in the night. The Land at night was even more vibrant as the races who preferred the night left their houses and started busying themselves.
In the night market, Grai blended in with the crowd and occasionally paused for a moment at some shop. He acted as if he was looking for someone. There were many people like him in the night market.
He no longer took on his original appearance. Instead, he had transformed into a member of the Rhino race. His body was majestic and had grown three times in size, and his height was close to three meters. His hair hung down loosely, and there was a curved and sharp rhino horn growing from his forehead. His face was also covered in dark green battle veins. Even if an elder of the Rhino race walked past, he would not have noticed that there was a human inside this body.
Grai was selecting the products on the goods shelves and occasionally cursed that they were too expensive in a rough and low voice, making him seem more like a member of the Rhino race. At the same time, his ingenuity prompted him to glance through the gaps in the shelves through the corner of his eye and observe the people walking outside. He was being chased by an alliance of Factions in the underground world.
The most terrible thing had happened. With the three great Factions in the lead, the underground world had worked together and issued an order for the arrest of Grai and Mu Zi.
Furthermore, all of this was obviously his fault! A hint of pain flashed past Grai’s eyes. If he had not talked incessantly about the dangerous situations the humans were in with Mu Zi, if he had not been so eager for instant success and wanted to do even more things... they could have done better. However, he had not been overcautious and chose a problematic path that seemed not bad but had many flaws in reality.
They were planning to kill people and wanted to challenge the relationship between the various large factions. They wanted to create gaps to find a more suitable living space for themselves.
However, since the three great Factions were able to tower over the rest, would they definitely be tricked by such a crude trick?
Furthermore, a Netherworld King that could suppress everything in the Netherworld River simply did not exist!
They did not have authentic power behind them to match their exuberant ambition.
All along, they had been building castles in the sky merely for show. They had been doing too well, so well that Grai relaxed the string that should always be taut. Thus, he and Mu Zi had been impatient to expand their scale and find a proper place in the divine territory for humans.
This impatience made them forget that the great Factions had a way to deal with the Netherworld River. They were simply fishing and observing while looking for the most suitable opportunity!
However, as they started to display their ambition, they planned to sow the seeds of profits in the underground world. As the news that the Netherworld King was taking in pupils spread throughout the underground world, more and more people would believe in the Netherworld King. Many people would even be excited and start to resist the lofty Factions. In the end, they would place their special artifacts on the trade list!
They started to test the lower limits of the Factions. As their actions became more frequent and more disruptive, the three great Factions decided to kill them. Regardless of whether there was a Netherworld King, they would have to speak using their strength and not just wave a few objects on the surface.
Like a game of chess, one setback would lead to setbacks at every subsequent step.
Grai knew that no matter how much he blamed himself, it was too late, and he could not go back. The underground world was filled with enemies everywhere. Meanwhile, Mu Zi... might have encountered an attack as the opponent would definitely attack Mu Zi before attacking him. Now, he could only pray that Mu Zi borrowed the protection of the Netherworld River and that the heavens would help him.
Grai took a deep breath. Once again, he silently told himself that he definitely had to keep his calm. It had already happened, and the mistake had been made. He had already done enough reflection. What he needed now was not to panic, but to find a new path. The first step was to escape.
The number of people chasing him grew, and the net that they set down grew tighter. Although he did not know what methods those people were using, they had locked onto his position. It was not an accurate position, but they could still track him.
Grai, who had calmed down once again, gave up on his plan to head to the underground world. His enemies had calculated this step. Thus, regardless of what method he could come up with, there would only be one result. He was at their mercy, and things would degenerate as they trampled on him.
What he needed was to do something that the enemy had not calculated, such as transforming into a female Rhino. Yes, he had now taken on the appearance of a female. His high chest had already attracted many male goblins to strike up a conversation with him. The process made him rather annoyed, but the effects were very good. They had helped him to escape several capture attempts that had been almost impossible to avoid.
However, Grai was very clear that this would not last. Very quickly, his enemies would adjust their strategy and expand their manhunt conditions. Even though the arrest warrant that the three great Factions had issued did not have the legal validity of the Star Alliance, its influence in the Land was not much different than the Star Alliance’s official edicts. To some extent, this would attract those so-called bounty hunters.
Grai quickly bought the rations he needed and paid for them while cursing like the most normal Rhino person. Then, he strutted out of the shop. There was a stream of people outside. Rhino goblins like him were normal and instantly integrated with the night.
However, just as he walked halfway through the street, Grai’s footsteps became extremely heavy. He looked at the sloppy crowd with an embarrassed expression. —— They followed his steps and stopped at the same time. Then, everyone turned to look at him. Dozens of cold faces laughed coldly at him like a gust of icy wind.
"Heh heh. Apostle of the Netherworld King, you are good. Even though the Transformation Pill is easy to use, it is not perfect."
Amidst the laughter, someone dressed in blue clothes elegantly arrived in front of him. The blood vessels beneath his pale skin could be seen clearly, and dark spiritual power flowed through the vessels. He had four eyes on his face and deep Netherworld energy swirled in his eyes like a whirlpool in a river. Grai looked at him with a profound gaze. The spiritual power in the street was dragged in and captured by his four eyes like drowning souls.
When Grai turned and walked a few steps, a wave of massive imprisoning power was transmitted through the space and abruptly pulled him back to reality.
Grai sighed. His bones gradually shrunk with a cracking sound, and his muscles that had swelled from the secret technique gradually disappeared. The combat veins on his face also vanished. A red light shone, and his aura flashed in the air. The power that had been brewing in his combat veins turned into gashes that integrated below his skin. He looked at the street that had been cleared out by his captors. "Is there a need to do so? You personally took up this matter just to deal with a mere Foundational Stage. Is the Netherworld Faction that willing?"
"What other method is there? You are not extremely powerful and arrogant, and you attracted the attention of the Bosses. However, you guys are immature too. It’s best to not put up a fight and save everyone’s time," said the four-eyes in blue clothes.
"You are mistaken. What I meant was that if you die, wouldn’t the inheritance of the Four Eye Magic in the Netherworld Faction be severed?"
"Severed? If I die? Ha ha ha ha. By you?"
In an instant, his four eyes suddenly coagulated, and his veins exploded. All the blood in his entire body was surging to his head.
